Ambient, wafting synth pads and distorted leads set the scene for some humble, soft piano — giving way to a luxurious swell of warm synth tones at the height of the track. Just like the smell of soil after summer rain.

Nightfall
A dark, atmospheric hybrid track melding solo strings and piano with strong rhythmic electronic synths and pads, building up to a dramatic back-end.
Icarus (2019 Remaster)
A remaster of another popular old library track. Sweeping, uplifting orchestra, with synth and driving percussion.
Light in Dark Places (2019 Remaster)
A remaster of a popular old library track. Uplifting orchestra with some bold choir in the back half – short but sweet.
There is a Place
Melancholy ambient piano and strings – dreaming of a cosy, safe place to ride out the last of this Swedish winter :).
She Moved Mountains
Very simple ambient piano, focusing on the space between notes. Subtle strings and synths fill out the space. This was a musical response to the passing of someone I knew.
Ashes of a Fallen Year (2019 Remaster)
A 2019 remaster of an old track! ‘Ashes’ is a simple, uplifting orchestral track with acoustic drums and strings. The new version has more emphasis on solo strings (violin and cello).
Skyscraper Samba
Elevator music, pure and simple. Three versions are provided: Full Mix, EQ’d (for the elevator speaker experience), and EQ’d + Less Drums (heard above), which has a simpler, more comedic vibe.
Freedom
An uplifting orchestral track, imbued with ideas of exploration, and the pioneering spirit.
Ascension
Sweeping orchestra, with a touch of sadness, a pinch of melancholy, but a smidgeon of hope for balance – a modern tone poem for the trials of overcoming adversity. A simple, distorted synth helps drive the orchestra forward.
Childhood
Computations in a Snowstorm
Ambient electronics, strings and solo cello, melding into an amorphous tonal explorational soundscape. I’ve also included a ‘No Cello’ mix, which transforms the track into atmospheric underscore.
Intervention
Darker ambient piano – subtle thriller vibes, with a simpler piano theme which should hopefully work well as underscore. Also included is a ‘no melody’ alternative mix.
O Come All Ye Faithful
A cinematic re-orchestration of ‘O Come All Ye Faithful’, with sweeping strings, brass and percussion. Merry Christmas guys! Thanks for an amazing year.
Snowfall
A heartfelt reflection of the snowy darkness of Midwinter (at least of what it’s like here in Sweden!). Simple layered pianos, percussive and sustained strings, and synths.
Extrapolation
A simple, moody extrapolation of a piano improvisation, featuring atmospheric strings. Slightly uplifting, slightly melancholy.
The Black Waltz
A waltz for the damned, the broken and the tortured. Kooky, spooky and a little bit goofy! Happy Halloween, everyone!
The Old Ones
An eerie, ambient exploration of abstract string sounds and synths. Perhaps a homage to the Old Ones of the Lovecraft’s Necronomicon, but would be just as home in atmospheric science fiction. Happy Halloween! 😀
Red
A dark, driving orchestra/electronica hybrid track – inspired by the darker futures of visual masterpieces such as Deux Ex and Cyberpunk 2077. However, this track was directly inspired by Kuldar Leement’s inspirational digital artwork, ‘Red’.
Static
A calm, melancholy piano + string cue, with a simple cyclic theme. It’s a twinge of sadness mixed with a bit of optimism – of things lost but new things yet to come. And they’ll come.
